“The dash blinks out and resets when driving, especially when we are charging our phones. We were told by our dealer's service department (after keeping our truck 2 days) that it was our chargers. So we bought new chargers and the problem continued. We bought new phones as well, same issue. They have had our truck 10 days now and we have no answers. The issue occurs when the vehicle is in motion.”

“The issues I'm experiencing with this vehicle is delayed pedal response and a whole slew of transmission problems. There are no codes or check engine lights on. When coming to a stop and the vehicle downshifts you can visibly see the RPMs go up with each down shift and sometimes the downshift is so harsh going to 1st gear that it feels like another vehicle has bumped me from behind causing the truck to jerk forward and make a clunking sound. There is also a problem when upshifting where the RPMs will jump up before shifting into the next gear. …”

“I the last 6 months the truck has the TCM replaced after leaving me stranded on the side of the road. prior to completely going out the two dealers that looked at the truck said there was nothing wrong. the truck has had to be towed in three times to clear the transmission because it thinks it in park. This does not include the multilabel times of having to pulling off the road to shut the truck to reset the transmission. The high pressure fuel pump has gone out then five weeks later the low pressure fuel pump went out. Now a week later the IPDM went out.”
